ROSE HILLS COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Rose Hills Holdings Corp.)NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying March 31, 2003 interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Rose Hills Company and subsidiaries (the Company) have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial reporting and with the instructions to Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnote disclosures necessary for complete financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial condition, condensed results of operations and cash flows for the periods
presented.  These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Companys annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2002.

The Company, a Delaware corporation, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Rose Hills Holdings Corp. (RH Holdings). 
The Company was formed in 1996 for purposes of acquiring Roses, Inc., the owner and operator of the Rose Hills Mortuary, and purchasing certain assets and assuming certain liabilities of Rose Hills Memorial Park Association (the
Association) and Workman Mill Company, the owners of the real property and other cemetery assets of the Rose Hills Memorial Park (Rose Hills Cemetery) (collectively the 1996 Acquisition).

In April 2001, the shareholders of RH Holdings reached an agreement (Loewen Blackstone Settlement Agreement) pursuant to which Blackstone Capital Partners
II Merchant Banking Fund L.P. and its affiliates (collectively Blackstone), then the beneficial owner of 79.55% of the outstanding common stock of the Company, would exercise its put right and the minority shareholder, a reorganized
Loewen Group International, Inc. (Loewen), would acquire all of the stock of RH Holdings owned by Blackstone upon Loewens emergence from bankruptcy.  The U.S. Bankruptcy Court confirmed Loewens reorganization plan,
including the proposed acquisition of shares of RH Holdings from Blackstone on December 5, 2001, and the plan became effective on January 2, 2002.  Effective with its emergence from bankruptcy, Loewen has since been renamed the Alderwoods
Group, Inc. (Alderwoods).  Since the U.S. Bankruptcy Court approved the reorganization plan on December 5, 2001, such approval effectively obligated Blackstone and Loewen to consummate the put agreement.  Accordingly, the
Company has recorded the push-down of Alderwoods fresh start reporting in its consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2001.

On January 3, 2002, in full satisfaction of its obligations under the put arrangement, Alderwoods delivered to Blackstone unsecured, subordinated notes in the
aggregate principal amount of $24,678,571 and Alderwoods common stock with an aggregate value of $6,515,143.  As a result of the delivery of the consideration, Alderwoods completed its purchase of all of the stock of RH Holdings
beneficially owned by Blackstone. Upon closing of the transaction (Alderwoods Purchase Transaction), Alderwoods increased its ownership from 20.45% to 100% of the outstanding common stock of RH Holdings, thereby causing the Company to
become a wholly owned subsidiary of Alderwoods.  The shareholders agreement, and all other agreements, between Alderwoods and Blackstone with respect to the Company terminated as of the closing of the transaction, and Alderwoods became entitled
to elect all of the directors of the Company as of such date.

As of March 31, 2003, the Company operated 9 funeral homes, 3 funeral home
and cemetery combination properties and 1 cemetery property in the Southern California area. The Company offers cemetery interment and professional mortuary services, in addition to caskets, memorials, vaults, and flowers for sale on an at-need
basis. Pre-need funeral and cemetery products and services are offered on insurance contracts from which the Company earns commission.

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the prevailing practices
within the cemetery and mortuary industry. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2002 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2003 presentation.

2.   CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND POLICIES

Cemetery Revenue Recognition

Pre-need sales of cemetery interment rights are recognized in accordance with the guidance of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No.
66, Accounting for the Sales of Real Estate.  Accordingly, sales of interment rights are recognized under the full accrual method, the percentage of completion method, or the deposit method depending on the level of the buyers down
payment and any continuing involvement the Company has in developing sold property.  Direct cost of goods sold are deferred and recognized concurrent with the recognition of deferred sales.  Costs relating to the sale of cemetery interment
rights, including sales commissions, are expensed in the period incurred.

Allowances for anticipated customer cancellations and refunds
are provided at the date of sale based on managements estimate of expected cancellations using historical trends over the past six years.  In the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2003, an 8% and 6% effective cancellation rate was
used to provide for anticipated cancellations and refunds, respectively.  Actual cancellation rates in the future may result in a change in estimate.  A one percent change in the estimated cancellation rate would cause an approximate
$300,000 change in the Companys annual pre-need cemetery revenues.

Pre-need merchandise and service sales, and their direct cost
of goods sold, are recognized at the time of delivery of merchandise or performance of service.  Costs relating to the sale of merchandise and services, including sales commissions, are expensed in the period incurred.

At-need sales of cemetery interment rights, merchandise and services are recognized when the merchandise is delivered or the service is rendered.

A portion of the proceeds from the sale of interment rights is required by state law to be paid into an Endowment Care Fund to provide for the
perpetual care of the associated properties.  Cemetery revenue is recorded net of these amounts. Interest and dividend earnings of the Endowment Care Fund are used to defray the maintenance costs of cemeteries which are expensed as
incurred.  Additionally, pursuant to state law, the proceeds from the sale of pre-need merchandise and services may also be required to be paid into trust funds.

It is the Companys policy to voluntarily trust 100% of pre-need service revenue when contracts are paid in full.  Also, the Company has an agreement with a
vendor to purchase pre-need merchandise when the sales contracts are paid in full.  Funds voluntarily trusted for pre-need cemetery services are included in the consolidated financial statements.

Funeral Revenue Recognition

Pre-arranged funeral services contracts provide for future funeral services
and are generally determined by prices prevailing at the time the contract is signed.  The payments made under the contract are either placed in trust or are used to pay the premiums of third-party life insurance policies under which the
Company is designated as the beneficiary.  The pre-need funeral insurance policies sold by the Company are whole-life policies sold on a pre-need basis to pay for the cost of funeral services.  Commissions earned are based on a combination
of factors, such as the amount of funeral cost coverage sold, the age of the insured and the volume of monthly sales activity.  Insurance commissions earned and related selling expenses are recognized when the insurance company accepts the
policies.  Except for insurance commissions, no income is recognized until the performance of a specific funeral.

Income from
trust fund principal amounts and insurance contract amounts, together with trust fund investment earnings retained in trust and annual insurance benefits, are deferred until the service is performed.  The Company estimates that trust fund
investment earnings and annual insurance benefits exceed the increase in cost over time of providing the related services.  Upon performance of the specific funeral service, the Company will recognize the trust fund principal amount or
insurance contract amounts together with the accumulated trust earnings and annual insurance benefits as funeral revenues.  Costs relating to the sale of pre-arranged funeral services, including sales commission expense, are expensed in the
period incurred.

At-need funeral services revenues are recognized when the service is performed.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with SFAS
No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets, the Company reviews the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its
estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.  The Company utilizes the most current independent appraisals or estimates the fair
values of long-lived assets when independent information is not available, including, among other things, estimated lives and residual values, and believes such estimates to be reasonable.  Accordingly, different assumptions related to cash
flows or fair values of long-lived assets could materially affect the Companys estimates.

Valuation of Goodwill

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed for impairment on an annual
basis, as well as on the occurrence of certain significant events.  Each of the Companys reporting segments, Funeral and Cemetery, are reviewed independently.  The annual review entails determining an estimated fair value of goodwill
for comparison to the carrying amount of goodwill, to assess whether or not impairment has occurred.  In determination of the estimated fair value of goodwill, the Company compared the net carrying value of assets less liabilities to the
discounted cash flows of each segment.  Such determination involves complex assumptions; accordingly, if any estimates or related underlying assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record goodwill impairment charges
that result.  The Company will perform its annual goodwill impairment review on October 31 of each year.

3.   RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment
of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections which requires that the extinguishment of debt not be considered an extraordinary item under APB Opinion No. 30 (APB 30) Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the
Effects of Disposal of a Segment of Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions unless the debt extinguishment meets the unusual in nature and infrequency of occurrence criteria in APB 30. SFAS No.
145 is effective for fiscal years beginning after May 15, 2002 and upon adoption, companies must reclassify prior period items that do not meet the extraordinary item classification criteria in APB 30. The Company adopted SFAS No. 145 effective
January 1, 2003 which did not have an impact on the Companys financial position and results of operations.

In July 2002, the FASB
issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.  SFAS No. 146 nullifies EITF Issue No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an
Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).  It requires that a liability be recognized for those costs only when the liability is incurred, that is, when it meets the definition of a liability in the FASBs
conceptual framework.  SFAS No. 146 also establishes fair value as the objective for initial measurement of liabilities related to exit or disposal activities.  SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated
after December 31, 2002, and was adopted accordingly.  The adoption of SFAS No. 146 did not have an impact on the Companys financial position or results from operations.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation (FIN) No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect
Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others, an interpretation of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and Rescission of FASB Interpretation No. 34.  FIN No. 45 requires a guarantor to include disclosure of certain obligations, and if applicable,
at the inception of the guarantee recognize a liability for the fair value of other certain obligations undertaken in issuing a guarantee.  The recognition requirement is effective for guarantees issued or modified after December 31,
2002.  The Company did not have any guarantees at December 31, 2002 and will apply the provisions of FIN No. 45 prospectively to guarantees made after December 31, 2002.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation  Transition and Disclosure- an Amendment of FASB Statement No.
123.  SFAS No. 148 amends SFAS No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation.  In addition, amendments are made to the disclosure
requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.  Certain of the
disclosure modifications are required for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002.  The Company has not participated in a stock-based compensation plan.  Accordingly, there was no impact to the Company upon implementation of SFAS No.
148.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.  FIN No.
46 clarifies the application of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51, Consolidated Financial Statements, to certain entities in which equity investors lack certain characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have
sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, which is provided through other interests that will absorb some or all of the expected losses of the
entity.  FIN No. 46 applies immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003 and to variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date.  It applies in the first fiscal year or
interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, to variable interest entities in which an enterprise holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003.  The Company did not have any investments in any variable interest entities
at March 31, 2003 and will apply the provisions of FIN No. 46 prospectively to any future investments in variable interest entities.

contracts, an allowance for cancellations and refunds is provided at the date of sale based on managements estimates.

Amounts
receivable from funeral trusts represent the proceeds deposited in the funeral trust funds.  Amounts receivable from third party insurance companies represent the value of the unserviced policies.  An allowance for cancellations and
non-fulfillment by company-owned funeral homes is provided at the date of sale based upon managements estimates.  The company will receive these amounts when the contracted services are performed.

5.   INCOME TAXES

In connection with the Alderwoods Purchase Transaction, effective January
3, 2002, the Company will be included in the consolidated income tax returns of the Alderwoods Group, Inc.  Net operating loss carryover benefits were not available to offset income in 2002 or 2003.

The income tax provision for the three-month period ended March 31, 2002 and 2003 was $0.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively, and reflects the enacted tax rate
of 34% and 6% for Federal and California, an effective income tax rate of 40%.   The current period income tax liability is due to the Alderwoods Group, Inc. and is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the consolidated
balance sheet.   Prior to 2002, the Company filed separate income tax returns.

6.   SUBSEQUENT EVENT

On April 1, 2003,
the Company repaid all of the outstanding debt under the Bank Term Facility using a $45.0 million cash equity contribution from Alderwoods and approximately $7.6 million of cash on hand.  The Alderwoods equity cash contribution required an
amendment to Alderwoods $75.0 million Credit Facility Agreement.  Under the terms of the amended Alderwoods Credit Facility Agreement, Alderwoods obligations thereunder will be guaranteed by RH Holdings, the Company and the
Companys subsidiaries, and the lenders thereunder will receive a first priority security interest in and lien on all personal property of RH Holdings, the Company and the Companys subsidiaries and the real property of eight affiliate
funeral homes and cemeteries.  Real property at Rose Hills Memorial Park and Mortuary is not included in the Alderwoods Credit Facility Agreement.

|ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
|------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OVERVIEW

Rose Hills Company, a Delaware corporation, is a wholly owned subsidiary of RH Holdings. 
The Company was formed in 1996 for purposes of acquiring Roses, Inc., the owner and operator of the Rose Hills Mortuary, and purchasing certain assets and assuming certain liabilities of Rose Hills Memorial Park Association and Workman Mill Company,
the owners of the real property and other cemetery assets of the Rose Hills Memorial Park.

In April 2001, the shareholders of RH
Holdings reached an agreement pursuant to which Blackstone, then the beneficial owner of 79.55% of the outstanding common stock of the Company, would exercise its put right and the minority shareholder, a reorganized Loewen, would acquire all of the
stock of RH Holdings owned by Blackstone upon Loewens emergence from bankruptcy.  The U.S. Bankruptcy Court confirmed Loewens reorganization plan, including the proposed acquisition of shares of RH Holdings from Blackstone on
December 5, 2001, and the plan became effective on January 2, 2002.  Effective with its emergence from bankruptcy, Loewen has since been renamed the Alderwoods Group, Inc.  Since the U.S. Bankruptcy Court approved the reorganization plan
on December 5, 2001, such approval effectively obligated Blackstone and Loewen to consummate the put agreement.  Accordingly, the Company has recorded the push-down of Alderwoods fresh start reporting in its consolidated balance sheet as
of December 31, 2001.

On January 3, 2002, in full satisfaction of its obligations under the put arrangement, Alderwoods delivered to
Blackstone unsecured, subordinated notes in the aggregate principal amount of $24,678,571 and Alderwoods common stock with an aggregate value of $6,515,143.  As a result of the delivery of the consideration, Alderwoods completed its
purchase of all of the stock of RH Holdings beneficially owned by Blackstone.  Upon closing of the Alderwoods Purchase Transaction, Alderwoods increased its ownership from 20.45% to 100% of the outstanding common stock of RH Holdings, thereby
causing the Company to become a wholly owned subsidiary of Alderwoods. The shareholders agreement, and all other agreements, between Alderwoods and Blackstone with respect to the Company terminated as of the closing of the transaction, and
Alderwoods became entitled to elect all of the directors of the Company as of such date.

Rose Hills Mortuary and Memorial Park is the
largest, single-location cemetery and funeral home combination in the United States, and the Cemetery is the largest, single-location cemetery in the United States.  Rose Hills Memorial Park and the Rose Hills Mortuary have been continuously
operating since 1914 and 1956, respectively.  Rose Hills is situated less than 14 miles from downtown Los Angeles on approximately 1,400 acres of land near Whittier, California.  In addition to Rose Hills, the Company operated 9 funeral
homes, 2 funeral home cemetery combination properties and 1 cemetery property (collectively the Affiliates) as of March 31, 2003. Management believes that Rose Hills, together with the Affiliates, constitute a strategic assembly of
cemeteries and funeral homes in the greater Los Angeles area.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Accounting estimates and policies that the Company believes are most important to the portrayal of the Companys financial condition and results, and require
managements most difficult, subjective or complex judgments are described under Item 7 Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Rose Hills and Subsidiaries Annual Report as
of December 31, 2002, on Form 10-K as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.  Such critical accounting estimates and policies are also summarized in note 2 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included
in this report on Form 10-Q.

THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002

Consolidated revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2003 totaled $19.7 million compared to $18.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2002. Consolidated gross
profit for the first quarter of 2003 totaled $6.1 million compared to $5.0 million for the first quarter of 2002.  As a percentage of revenue, consolidated gross profit for the first quarter increased to 31% in 2003 from 28% in the same quarter
of 2002.

Funeral Operations:

Revenues from funeral operations decreased
3.5% to $8.2 million in 2003 compared to $8.5 million in 2002.  On a same store sales basis, the Company performed 1,865 funeral service calls during the first quarter of 2003 compared to 1,929 the first quarter of 2002, a 3.3% decline. 
The data published according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) within our primary Los Angeles market indicate a decrease in deaths of approximately 7% during our first quarter of 2003, compared to the same period last
year.  The average revenue per funeral call increased from $3,879 in 2002 to $3,971 in 2003.  The increase in average revenue per call was due to changes in service and casket product mix and an average 5% service price increase in August
2002 at the affiliate funeral homes.  Pre-need insurance commission revenue totaled $0.9 million compared to $0.8 million in the prior year, an increase of 12.5%.

As a percentage of sales, the gross profit for the funeral segment decreased from 35% to 33%. The decline in margin is partially due to 9% increase in casket
wholesale prices effective January 1, 2003.  During the three months ended March 31, 2003, the Companys funeral and cemetery insurance and trust backlog has grown $4.2 million to $183.5 million.

Cemetery Operations:

Revenues from cemetery operations increased over 20% compared to last year to $11.5
million.  Pre-need cemetery revenue increased 48% from $4.2 million in 2002 to $6.2 million in 2003.  In the first quarter of 2003, the pre-need cemetery lot averages increased almost 50% over the prior years production.  The
demand for sales of high-end specialty lawns at Rose Hills Memorial Park has continued to increase since their introduction in late 2002.  Because these lawns are not fully developed, approximately $0.5 million of pre-need cemetery revenue was
deferred under the percentage of completion accounting method.  At-need cemetery revenue in 2003 was $4.5 million compared to $4.4 million in the prior year.  Total interments declined 5.4% from 2,668 in 2002 to 2,523 in 2003.

The gross profit, as a percentage of sales, increased from 21% in 2002 to 30% in 2003. The primary reason for the increased margin is the due to
the continued success in sales of high-end specialty lawns discussed above while maintaining fixed advertising costs.

Other:

Corporate general and administrative expenses decreased from $1.5 million in 2002 to $1.4 million in 2003.  As a percentage of total sales, general and
administrative expenses were 7% in 2003 compared to 8% for the prior year.  Interest expense for the quarter was $2.7 million, $0.2 million less than the previous year due to the reduction of principal.

Earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization (EBITDA), increased to $6.8 million for 2003 from $5.5 million for 2002. The primary
reason for the $1.3 million increase in EBITDA over the prior year was the result of increased pre-need cemetery sales.  EBITDA should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for net income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America or as a measure of the Companys profitability or liquidity

EBITDA is
presented because it is a widely accepted financial indicator of a companys ability to incur and service debt and it is the basis on which compliance with the financial covenants under the Companys debt agreements is determined. 
EBITDA should not be considered in isolation, as a substitute for net income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or as a measure of a companys profitability or
liquidity.  Also, this measure of EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Flow/Working Capital

Net cash provided by operating activities was $7.6 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2003, compared to $3.6 million for the same period in 2002.  An increase in pre-need cemetery sales, reimbursement of prior year property tax payments related to the reduction of the 1996 property base taxable value of Rose
Hills Memorial Park received in 2003 and a one-time $2.5 million change in control payment to management in January 2002 were primarily responsible for the increase in cash from operating activities.  As of March 31, 2003, the Company had a
current ratio of 0.40 which was comparable to the current ratio at December 31, 2002.  After repayment of the Bank Term Facility, on April 1, 2003, the current ratio improved to 1.39 (see discussion below).

The primary use of cash has been for working capital and capital expenditures as permitted under the terms of bank agreements. Although the Company has no material
commitments for capital expenditures in 2003, the Company anticipates spending approximately $2.0 million in 2004 to reclaim approximately 13 acres of cemetery property at the Rose Hills Memorial Park negatively impacted by land movement.  The
Companys capital expenditures during the first three months of 2003 of $0.9 million were used primarily to develop and improve the existing infrastructure and cemetery grounds.

Long-Term
Indebtedness

Bank Term Facility

In connection with the 1996
Acquisition, the Company entered into senior secured amortization extended term loan facilities (the Bank Term Facility) in an aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million and a senior secured revolving credit facility (the Bank
Revolving Facility) in an aggregate principal amount of $25.0 million (amended in May 2001 to $10.0 million).

On April 1, 2003,
the Company repaid all of the outstanding debt under the Bank Term Facility using a $45.0 million cash equity contribution from Alderwoods and approximately $7.6 million of cash on hand.  The Alderwoods equity cash contribution required an
amendment to Alderwoods $75.0 million Credit Facility Agreement.  Under the terms of the amended Alderwoods Credit Facility Agreement, Alderwoods obligations thereunder will be guaranteed by RH Holdings, the Company and the
Companys subsidiaries, and the lenders thereunder will receive a first priority security interest in and lien on all personal property of RH Holdings, the Company and the Companys subsidiaries and the real property of eight affiliate
funeral homes and cemeteries.  Real property at Rose Hills Memorial Park and Mortuary is not included in the Alderwoods Credit Facility Agreement.  The Company did not renew its Bank Revolving Facility which expired April 1, 2003. 
Accordingly, the restrictions under the Bank Term Facility have ceased.

Senior Subordinated Notes

In connection with the 1996
Acquisition, the Company also issued $80 million of 9-1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2004, which were exchanged in September 1997 for $80 million of 9-1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2004 (the Notes) that were registered under the
Securities Act of 1933.  The Notes mature on November 15, 2004.  Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 at the annual rate of 9-1/2%.  The Notes are redeemable in cash at the option of the Company, in
whole or in part, at any time on or after November 15, 2000, at prices ranging from 104.75% with annual reductions to 100% in 2003 plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date.  The proceeds of the Notes were used, in part,
to finance the 1996 Acquisition.

The Company and its Subsidiaries are subject to certain restrictive covenants contained in the
indenture to the Notes, including, but not limited to, covenants imposing limitations on: the incurrence of additional indebtedness; certain payments, including dividends and investments; the creation of liens; sales of assets and preferred stock;
transactions with interested persons; payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries; sale-leaseback transactions; and mergers and consolidations.  The indenture does allow for dividend payments out of capital contributions received after the
issuance of the Notes.  In addition, dividend payments are allowed up to 50% of accumulated earnings (or if such accumulated earnings are a deficit, minus 100% of such deficit) since the issuance of the Notes.  As of May 12, 2003, $29.0
million of dividends are permitted under the Notes covenants.  At March 31, 2003 the Company was in compliance with the terms of the indenture.

The Companys total indebtedness as of March 31, 2003 was $131.8 million.  After retirement of the Bank Term Facility (as discussed above), the
Companys remaining cash on hand was approximately $7.0 million and remaining indebtedness primarily consists of the $80.0 million in outstanding Senior Subordinated Notes.  The Company believes that its existing and projected cash flows
will be sufficient to maintain its current level of operating activities through November 2004 when the Notes mature.  The Company will have to obtain new or additional financing to pay some or all the principal amount outstanding on the
Notes.  No assurance can be given that such financing will be available to the Company or, if available that it may be obtained on terms and conditions that are satisfactory to the Company.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

payments of certain contractual obligations as of March 31, 2003 (in millions):

Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements

On April 1, 2003, under the terms of the amended $75.0 million Alderwoods Credit Facility Agreement, Alderwoods obligations thereunder are
guaranteed by RH Holdings, Rose Hills Company and the subsidiaries of Rose Hills Company.  The lenders thereunder have received a first priority interest in and lien on all personal property of RH Holdings, Rose Hills Company and the
subsidiaries of Rose Hills Company and the real property of eight affiliate funeral home and cemeteries.  Real property at Rose Hills Memorial Park and Mortuary is not included in the Alderwoods Credit Facility Agreement.  The Alderwoods
Credit Facility expires April 30, 2004.

Except for $12.4 million of outstanding letters of credit, there were no outstanding balances
under the Alderwoods Credit Facility as of May 12, 2003.

PART II

|ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
|------- | ------------------------

Within the
90 days preceding the date of this report, management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule
13a-14.  Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that all material information required to be filed in this quarterly
report has been made known to them in a timely fashion.  There have been no significant changes in internal controls, or in factors that could significantly affect internal controls, subsequent to the date the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer completed their evaluation.

|ITEM 5. | OTHER INFORMATION
|------- | -----------------

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is involved in certain matters of threatened and filed litigation, none of which, in the judgment of the Management, will have a material impact on the
Companys consolidated financial position or results of operations.

CONTINGENCIES

During August and September 2000, the Company discovered that there had been some land movement in a portion of the Rose Hills Cemetery.  The affected area
represents approximately 13 acres of the Cemeterys approximately 1,400 total acres, and consists of approximately 12,000 interment sites.  The Company hired outside geo-technical and engineering consultants to study the affected area to
identify the underlying cause and the extent of the land movement, and to make recommendations with regard to both short-term and long-term remediation and stabilization measures.  The Companys consultants advised that the affected area
could continue to move, particularly in the event of heavy rainfall during the winter months.  Accordingly, during October 2000, the Company began to take some intermediate remediation measures, including the installation of additional
dewatering wells in the affected area and the relocation to other areas of the Cemetery (at the Companys expense) of approximately 140 interred remains that were in the most severely impacted portion of the affected area.  Through March
31, 2003, the Company has accommodated over 1,100 additional families that have requested relocation of interred remains from the affected area.

Based on preliminary reports in July 2001 and additional testing through October 2001, the engineering firm concluded that the land movement most likely had been
caused by a combination of geologic, topographic, water and soil conditions within the affected area.  The reports also identified a variety of measures that the Company could take to remediate and improve the stability of the area, including
the construction and installation of engineered reinforcement fill berms at the base of the slide, the installation of de-watering wells throughout the affected area, and the implementation of other erosion control measures.  Based on these
test results and recommendations provided by the engineering firm, the Company decided to undertake complete restoration and stabilization of the affected area.  In the first quarter of 2002, the Company began its remediation of the affected
area by installing additional de-watering wells.  In June 2002, the engineering firm finalized their earthwork construction design plans, including the exact area that would require disinterments and relocation of interred remains in
preparation for the construction project.  The construction and installation of the reinforcement berms will begin after the necessary disinterments and relocations are completed.  The Company expects to begin construction during the first
quarter 2004 and to complete construction by the end of the third quarter 2004.

In 2001, the Company reserved $3.0 million for the
estimated remediation project costs in excess of the availability of remaining Endowment Care Fund (ECF) improvement reserve funds.  The Company spent approximately $1.0 million in each of the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2002 on
remediation and related costs.  The Company has spent approximately $0.2 million on remediation and related costs in the first three months of 2003.  The remaining remediation costs will be spent in the second half of 2003 through the
third quarter of 2004.  As of March 31, 2003, the Companys remaining accrued liability totaled approximately $0.8 million and the ECF improvement reserve fund balance available for future remediation costs totaled approximately $1.6
million.  Management believes, based in part on the advice of its geo-technical consultants and the availability of ECF improvement reserves, the Companys reserve as of March 31, 2003 is adequate to fulfill future remediation cost
obligations.

RECENT EVENTS

Effective July 1, 2003, Kenton C. Woods, the
Companys Chief Financial Officer, will assume the position of President and Chief Executive Officer of Rose Hills Company. Mary C. Guzman, the Companys Vice President and Controller, will succeed Mr. Woods as the Chief Financial Officer of
Rose Hills Company. Dennis C. Poulsen, the Companys Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer, will continue on as non-executive Chairman of the Board of Rose Hills Company.
